Seeking Permission



Dear XO Records,

I am contacting you on behalf of Patient Productions as we would like to request legal permission to use The Weeknds’ song “Wicked Games” from the 2011 album “House of Balloons” as a part of "The Trilogy".

I am a sixth form student at the FitzWimarc School; I am currently studying media studies and for my A-Level 
coursework, I have to create a music video for my advanced portfolio, for the exam board AQA. I decided to choose
this song as it does not have a music video and I feel that the lyrics can be interpreted in several different ways. 
Moreover the Weeknd is a contemporary artiste which is currently very popular and since The Weeknd has not long released another album, which went 2x multi-platinum, he is even more influential as an artiste at this time and thus making my music video more relevant to my target audiences.

If granted with your permission, I will only use the song for educational purposes and the exam board AQA. The artiste and you, the record label, will be credited for the track in the most appropriate way possible. Please do hesitate to reply with any comments or if you require any specific details. I believe this song can help me to achieve the highest grade I can.

Thank you for taking the time to read this email and I hope you take my request into consideration.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Many thanks,

George Patient
